My mom died 6-8-2016 she and my father had been divorced since about 1999. I am the oldest child and the only one who took any part (the whole thing) of the planning and carrying out of her funeral. She died unexpectedly and had no will or power of attorney in place. As I am going about trying to take care of any of her unfinished business and take care of closing her accounts. She was essentially homeless, when she died she was living with her step mom and step brother and she was not employed she was collecting social security disability so she doesn't have much as far as assets I was just hoping to use any money that was left in her account to help cover the costs of the funeral not for personal gain. I went to the bank to take care of her accounts and they told me that I need some form in order to gain access to the funds in her account. What do I need to do, what documents do I need? Do I need legal services. Just trying to wrap things up for her.
